This sweating has been going on for at least a year. It is not hot flashes. This is different. Please help.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Your symptoms can be related to menopause. This is a very common cause of night sweats in women. I also suggest to do a complete blood count to check out for any infection.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
